Chevrolet Silverado Owner Manual - 2011
Seats and Restraints 3-45
The passenger sensing system is
designed to turn on (may inflate)
the right front passenger frontal
airbag anytime the system senses
that a person of adult size is
sitting properly in the right front
passenger seat.
When the passenger sensing
system has allowed the airbag
to be enabled, the on indicator will
light and stay lit to remind you that
the airbag is active.
For some children, including
children in child restraints, and
for very small adults, the passenger
sensing system may or may not
turn off the right front passenger
frontal airbag, depending upon
the person's seating posture and
body build. Everyone in your vehicle
who has outgrown child restraints
should wear a safety belt
properly — whether or not there
is an airbag for that person.

WARNING
If the airbag readiness light ever
comes on and stays on, it means
that something may be wrong
with the airbag system. To help
avoid injury to yourself or others,
have the vehicle serviced right
away. See Airbag Readiness
Light
on page 5‑22
for more
information, including important
safety information.

the vehicle.
